Prevue Pet Products 3351W Park Plaza Bird Cage, Pewter,Small

I have had this cage for my B&G Macaw who will be 13 yrs old in Nov. since September 2021. It arrived mildly damaged (shipping) but I kept it anyway as I needed it after a move to provide her more space. Her original cage given to me when I rescued her was much smaller and this was a great improvement.It has provided more than ample space. Unfortunately over the past year and half, the cage is failing in several ways.She does not bite or chew on her cage. She loves being inside and only exits or attempts to exit when I provide her walking stick to "step up".The latch has stopped functioning many times and I have had to work in it to get the rod in the latch to."pop out" after retracting in order lock the door again.Luckily she doesn't attempt to escape so it has not been an issue however, I would not risk leaving her cage unlocked when I am not home for fear she may get out some day and venture into areas of the home she should not be unsupervised.Another concern is the handy swivel latches attached to prevent the bottom pan and the bottom grate from sliding out. These become loose quickly and bend easily.As for the seeds catcher and the droppings tray...there are gaps all around that allow food and fecal matter to slip right through. I am a neat freak and it is an eyesore to constantly see poop on the outside lower section of her cage even though these parts are there to prevent just that. I do realize birds can shoot potty out from their cage but this is literally dripping from the inner edges of the pan that should remain contained. In my opinion, a design flaw.Yesterday, when I closed her cage door, the upper right corner weld just came apart. It completely separated. The left side is intact. The left side has more welding material than the right too. My guess is due to the thinner layer of material used to form that right side weld, it eventually failed.I've no idea how I will fix that.Overall I can live with the other "issues". Nothing is ever "perfect". We do love her cage. She is extremely happy in it when she is.I'm just needing to find a fix for her door being broken for her safety. She's curious now.All I add to this for my purpose of sharing a review is to any new purchaser...Check your cage very well upon arrival for any defects or flaws. It will be worth the money. But remedy any issues right away to avoid problems down the road.

Cheapest stainless steel cage I could find and definitely worth the price. Very safe and simple to put together. It is shorter than I would like but I think my bird is ok with it. I have a meyers parrot in it and he was comfortable going in right away. It’s sturdy for his size but I probably wouldn’t put a bird that’s much bigger or smaller in here. Bar spacing is probably too wide for my quaker or any smaller bird and it would be too small for anything bigger than an African grey (only if the bird got a lot of time out of the cage). My bird destroyed his last two cages very quickly by chewing on the bars and chipping the powder coating. This cage was totally worth buying and I am relieved to have a safe cage for my baby! Will update this review if I find any issues!

We are fostering a blue and gold macaw who stresses his feathers, so we are hoping a spacious cage with plenty of toys will distract him from himself. This cage has the most cubic feet per dollar compared to any other cage out there.This cage is definitely spacious - over 60 cubic feet. The door is nice and large, so it is easy to get the bird out and back in. I’m now sure how Amazon is able to offer it at this price, but this cage is hundreds of dollars less than other cages. It is not an ornate cage and is slightly boxy, but we were willing to sacrifice appearance for the extra space and lower cost.The cage was not difficult to put together. The directions were clear and easy to follow. It took two of us two hours from start to finish, including adding perches, toys, and lining the tray. There was one hole on the front that didn’t line up perfectly, but we were able to force it into place. (To be clear, we are no strangers to putting cages together.)This is not the world’s sturdiest cage. Bar spacing is comparable, but the bars are not the thickness, weight, or quality of our other large-bird cages. Our foster is pretty chill and more interested in what’s in the cage than the cage itself. If you have a bird who likes to cruise the cage checking for weak spots, keep looking - this cage is adequate for most birds, but it would be no match for a bar bender or an escape artist.The powder coating seems fine and is attractive. The seed catchers have rounded corners, which is fabulous. As with most cages with seed catchers, there is a disappointing waste of space between the grate and the tray. The tray slides out easily for daily paper changes. The tray is huge and is difficult for someone small of stature to carry, but we put in at least a week’s worth of layers at a time, then slide out the tray and dispose of the top layer each day.The front latch is interesting, with a push-button release. The handles on the food dishes spin all the way up and seem secure. The stainless steel dishes are large and deep and the bird loves them. The first time he drank from his new water dish, he said, “Yum!” three times in a row! For the life of me, I can’t imagine why they didn’t put a fourth door and dish. Another dish can be added next to the third dish, but I will have to reach in to retrieve the dish.Keep in mind that this cage is tall. If you don’t have high ceilings, you likely won’t be able to let your bird climb around on the top. Due to the height, there is no play stand on top. Since our foster has a separate play stand, our goal was to provide extra space for when he is in his cage. The height is such that the cage will not roll out our sliding glass doors. We will have to tip the cage on its short side and carry it out. Since it’s not as heavy as some of our other cages, that is very doable.We are well satisfied with our purchase, especially for the cost. The bird is happy and loves the extra space, and that’s what counts the most.

This cage is quality. Everything fit together perfectly. Input it together myself without help in about an hour. If I had help it would have been a breeze. There were no missing parts or screws. The only thing left is to get my parrot used to it. For now, it is the Big Evil Shiny thing.

I have owned this flight cage for one month, and I have to agree with those who have given it positive reviews. I currently house five finches in it, including a tiny bronze winged-mannikin, and there is no way for them to escape, provided you assemble the cage correctly and it is not damaged. Now, as for bent wires, there will probably be a few when you unpack the pieces. The directions even warn of this. But I was easily able to put them back in place with a pair of pliers. And I am NOT a handy, tool-oriented sort of person. Nor am I particularly adept at assembling things, but I was able to put this together largely by myself. I did, however, need a second person to hold pieces in place for me at a couple of steps in the process (the instructions are correct in indicating where you will need assistance). Assembly itself took about an hour, maybe, and I ran into almost no problems. The trickiest part to assemble is the roof, but with a second person holding pieces in place, it came together. And it left no spaces wide enough for finches to escape. The only part I had a bit of trouble with was getting the wheels into the casters, as you need to hammer them into place, but my 60+-year-old mom was able to do it no problem, so maybe I am just weak :).I LOVE all of the large and small doors that allow me access to various parts of the cage. The two large doors on the front unhinge and swing out to the side, and I am able to fit the entire upper portion of my body into the cage. They both latch easily, once you get the hang of it. In addition, the large doors have small access doors on them that slide upwards (typical of the kind you would find on many bird cages). The cage also has two of these small doors on each side, one upper and one lower. No doors on the back. I have had no problem using the standard water/food feeder in these openings.The cage comes with its own food/water feeders, which attach to the horizontal wires within the cage, and can go almost anywhere you want to put them. I love to use these for food.The tray at the bottom slides out easily, and I have found that it just fits inside a large black trash bag, so that I can slide it into the bag to dump out the substrate without much mess. Above the tray, there is also a removable grate (just don't remove both at once--then there is absolutely room for finches to escape!). I have found that I can clean the grate without needing to remove it, since the bottom cage door is so large.Now for dimensions. It is true that finches prefer horizontality to verticality, so length is important. There is ample length and width for several finches (NOT 20+, though--this would mean serious overcrowding). My societies make use of the entire cage, top to bottom. My gouldians prefer to stay at the very top. I am sure it just depends on the finch. I originally housed zebras in this cage, and they also only used the top.For such a large cage, it is extremely mobile! Provided you have the space to maneuver, it is quite easy to push it around the room (if vacuuming, for example), thanks to the wheels on the bottom.Finally, this cage is STURDY. It is made of much stronger, more durable material than my previous 18 x 18 x 30 Petco flight cages.I was hesitant to buy this model because it is a bit pricey (there is, I think, another Prevue flight cage that is generally cheaper and periodically on sale), but I really like the decorative aspect of the sloping roof. And I think the finches appreciate being able to get to the very apex of their environment, which they are able to access via the manzanita perches I placed up there.Very happy with my purchase.

Got the large size, for a new African Grey. So she'll have plenty of room. Old cage I had for 20+ years was a better design, but I wanted to go larger and stainless, which would have been around $3K going with the old brand I used. Can't swing that amount easily, so I settled on the Prevue.Really wish the feeding dish doors were higher up, and on the side instead of the front. Doing so would have allowed the front door to be much larger, for easier cleaning. And would be easier to get at the food dishes.Captured nuts attaching the upper and lower panels are backwards in my opinion. Will collect dust/dirt/food as they were implemented in the design. No easy way to reverse them. Would have been better for the screw head to be on the top. Since the captured nut is on the top instead, it will collect debris in the cavity. Best design would just have single panels, so you would not need to screw 2 together to make one side.Stainless frames are a bit thin. Do not torque the screws down very tight or you can end up bending the frames. If I see them loosening over time, I will just blue loktite them as needed.Cage came with 2" wheels. They didn't roll as easily as I could wish for, and the lever lock mechanism on them sticks out enough that I'm pretty sure I would be cursing them after stubbing toes on them. So I replaced them with 3" casters with the typical side locks. Cage rolls much better now and with less toe catching potential. The larger casters raised the cage up about an inch (which is good in my opinion). And frankly, they look better and more appropriate in size relative to the overall cage size.If contemplating doing the same, note that the cage comes setup to use M8 metric threaded casters.Finally, is not a very good way to attach hanging toys to the top. Using typical threaded links to attach, you will find the links rub against the bottom of the upper cleanout tray. I will probably add a spacer to the side rails the tray rest on, to raise the tray a bit. Might be a good idea to raise it anyway for the bird, as it is a tight enough distance as designed that a bird could easily get their toes wedged in there between the tray and bars.All in all, it's a decent cage for the price point in stainless. Could be better.

It is pretty sad that there is an industry where you have to accept that a product will always be damaged whenever you buy it, but that is exactly the case for buying a bird cage. This trend seems to transcend brands, sellers, and online vs. brick-and-mortar sellers. Most reviews blamed the shipper but the parts that were damaged in our set were completely protected and in the center of the package. A lot of other parts would have to have been damaged for it to have been the fault of the shipper. The fact is manufacturers just do not care and stick it to you. Frankly as a bird owner you have few alternatives but to overpay for a substandard product. This has been the case for me since I first started caring for birds around 1999, and the quality control has only gotten worse over the years.This particular cage was no exception to the rule. It was badly damaged, but short of buying a crate and paying a ridiculous amount to send it back and repeating the process until a miracle occurred I did what many reviewers did: pounded it and bent it until it kind of worked. The cage was virtually impossible to put together with one person (prepare to have a series of clamps and propping stands if attempting this). It was really hard to do with two people. Had I been able to get a third person to help that day I would have, so I definitely recommend at least 3 people. This is mainly due to the size of the cage and the number of pieces they expect you to hold in place while simultaneously screwing them together. So unless you are Doc Oc, have some help ready before you buy.The cage is big enough for my two amazons, so no complaints about the size. Most people wrote how it was much bigger than they expected. Definitely measure out the space in all three dimensions before you buy. We did not even attach the litter-guard rails because it is already so large. Other birds may be able to chew through the bars, but our birds do not even attempt to so I cannot comment there. Because of the damaged condition it arrived in it will be hard to say how long it holds up. The biggest issue for us is cleaning. The litter tray is one gigantic piece. It is heavy enough to slide in and out empty, and full you should definitely have help standing by. One of our birds is near blind and likes to attack, so reaching down inside through the door to help clean is not really an option for us. Our previous Prevue cage failed because the frame could no longer support the tray. We kept the tray on the floor (which we had to gate off so our dogs could not get into it) until the tray itself finally rusted through.My advice to anyone with the tools, money, and space is to do research and build your own bird enclosure. It is possible to build one for much cheaper, but I lacked tools, space, and the pandemic did not make shopping all that easy. Just make sure you choose safe materials that will not be toxic to your bird at any point, and make sure they have the ability to get fresh air, climb, and get food and water. Consult your veterinarian!

Easy to assemble. My 28 yr old parrot loves his new cage with a play top. Easy to clean too.
